Mr. Gale

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what financial support was provided from public funds to the Potato Marketing Board to enable it to take surplus potato stocks off the market in the year ended 31

had during his recent visit to the aid conference in Washington about the possibility of a conference in, or visit to, the Organisation of East Caribbean States; and what was the outcome of those discussions.

Mr. Raison

I was approached by the Prime Minister of St. Kitts/Nevis, on behalf of the Organisation of East Caribbean States, to seek a meeting at ministerial level to discuss general policy issues arising from our bilateral aid to the OECS states. I have since offered to meet OECS Ministers for this purpose in the Caribbean. I hope that a meeting can take place soon.
